Didnt know the smart bottles fit, I just use a regular auqafina bottle and the squeeze bags for the sawyer. I also use a 64oz platypus bag to fill up for night at camp so I am not constanly refilling.

I busted one of the Sawyer bags first use. Plus the bags are tough to fill in a shallow creek sometimes. Threads are the same.
I also use a Platypus hydration bladder. Hook the Sawyer filter inline with the hose. I can hang that from a branch and gravity filter 3 liters in no time. Normally fill that up and use in camp as needed. It is handy when I have my kids, which is always.
A guy in my kids troop took a 10 liter dry sack and rigged the filter on it. With a big group just fill it up and everyone can filter with it.
